Adding the GOG launcher to a game (on SteamDeck)

Now that BG3 is working on my deck (thank-you), I'd like to know how to get the GOG launcher onto the system... to facilitate sharing saved games with my windows desktop. One the kind people here mentioned it was possible whille helping me with that earlier problem...

Do you mean gog galaxy? Because that application isn't supported on Linux

So you can download your cloud saved games

Baldurs Gate handles it internally when launched with Galaxy running in the background

no as they are handled by Larian

radical-lime•9/8/23, 1:10 PM

they are disabled on GOG side

similar thing happens with steam cloud I suppose

this is a way of making users be able to move saves across platforms so PC <-> consoles

it should also work between GOG <-> Steam but to be fair who buys such game on two stores at the same time

radical-lime•9/8/23, 1:13 PM

so currently the only way is to run Galaxy alongside with the game

The easiest solution for the deck is to have a script added to Gaming mode that will launch two games - GOG Galaxy and then Baldurs Gate after some timeout

or playing in desktop mode and launching both manually
